  • 102-75-3 2nd Place
    • Good to go for Game 5
      Doncic (ankle/knee) is active and starting Wednesday's Game 5 against the Thunder.

      Advice: Doncic was initially labeled probable with lingering knee and ankle injuries but, as expected, will suit up for Wednesday's tilt. Considering he hasn't faced any restrictions since sustaining the injury, Doncic should see as many minutes as he can handle in the pivotal matchup. Rotowire.com 20 minutes ago
       
    • Luka Doncic (ankle, knee) available for Game 5
      Luka Doncic (left ankle soreness, right knee sprain) is available for Wednesday’s game against the Thunder.

      Advice: As expected, Doncic is available for Wednesday’s pivotal Game 5. The injuries have factored into the Mavericks point guard’s inefficiency in this series, and he’ll need to be better if Dallas is to win and take a 3-2 lead. Rotoworld 32 minutes ago
       
    • Aaron Gordon records 18/10/5/1 line in Game 5 win
      Aaron Gordon finished Tuesday’s 112-97 win over the Timberwolves with 18 points (7-of-14 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), 10 rebounds, five assists, and one steal in 34 minutes.

      Advice: Gordon recorded his first double-double of the series on Tuesday, supplementing the Herculean efforts of Nikola Jokic to help the Nuggets take a 3-2 series lead. While he missed his lone 3-point attempt, AG has been a credible shooter from beyond the arc and the foul line. Counting Tuesday’s numbers, Gordon is shooting 8-of-13 from three and 9-of-12 from the charity stripe. During the regular season, he shot 29% from three and 65.8% from the foul line, so the production in this series has been a departure from the norm. However, a five-game sample size is nothing to scoff at. Gordon and the Nuggets will look to close out the series in Game 6 on Thursday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:12 pm
       
    • Luka Doncic (ankle, knee) probable for Game 5 Wed.
      Luka Doncic (left ankle soreness, right knee sprain) is probable for Wednesday’s game against Oklahoma City.

      Advice: Doncic remains on the injury report ahead of Wednesday’s crucial Game 5 but is listed as probable instead of questionable. He’ll be on the court; the question is how effective the Mavericks point guard will be. He’s looked frustrated during this series, and not being fully healthy doesn’t help matters. While Doncic recorded a triple-double in Monday’s Game 4 defeat, he shot 6-of-20 from the field and committed seven turnovers. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:39 pm
       
    • Expected to play Wednesday
      Doncic (knee/ankle) is listed as probable for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Thunder, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.

      Advice: Doncic continues to deal with a right knee sprain and left ankle soreness but is expected to suit up again. Doncic has averaged 41.0 minutes per contest across the first four games of the series and is unlikely to operate under a minutes restriction in a critical Game 5.

    • Posts triple-double Monday
      Doncic provided 18 points (6-20 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 12 rebounds, 10 assists, one block and two steals over 42 minutes during Monday's 100-96 loss to Oklahoma City in Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals.

      Advice: On the surface, Doncic's final stat line looks good, as he posted his second triple-double of the postseason and made his presence felt on the defensive end. However, the star guard is battling with several injuries, and he looked a step slow in some sequences and was extremely inefficient with his shot. Doncic is averaging 22.0 points, 10.8 rebounds and 7.8 assists per game in the series against the Thunder, and the decrease in the scoring column is directly tied to the fact he's shooting a mere 39 percent from the floor. He'll aim to bounce back in Game 5 on Wednesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:09 am
       
    • Luka Doncic posts inefficient triple-double Monday
      Luka Doncic recorded a triple-double on Monday with 18 points (6-of-20 FGs), 12 rebounds, 10 assists, two steals, one block, two triples and seven turnovers against the Thunder in Game 4.

      Advice: As Doncic continues to play through multiple lower body injuries, his numbers have understandably suffered. Outside of Game 2, his shooting in this series has been way below average. He shot poorly in the first round as well, but it was covered up by gaudy numbers and wins. Injuries aren’t an excuse in the playoffs, and Dallas simply needs more out of their superstar if they want to win another game in OKC. The good news is that it doesn’t get much worse than 6-of-20 shooting and seven turnovers. He’ll look to bounce back in Game 5 on Wednesday. Rotoworld Monday, 9:52 pm
       
    • Luka Doncic (knee, ankle) available for Game 4
      Luka Doncic (right knee sprain, left ankle soreness) will play in Game 4 against the Thunder on Monday.

      Advice: As expected, Doncic has been cleared to play in Monday’s game as Dallas looks to take a 3-1 lead in the series. He only had 22 points in Saturday’s win, but he also added 15 rebounds and five assists. He should continue to put up big numbers moving forward. Rotoworld Monday, 5:01 pm
       
    • Cleared for Game 4
      Doncic (knee) will play in Monday's Game 4 against the Thunder, Grant Afseth of SI.com reports.

      Advice: Doncic took a step in the right direction by participating in morning shootaround, and he's since been given the green light to suit up for Monday's matchup. The star point guard has been held in check by his standards through the first three games of the series, knocking down 42.1 percent of his tries from the field and 35.0 percent from downtown.
